Over Time, Sexuality In America Has Changed Dramatically.

Edited By Thomas A. Foster, Documenting Intimate Matters Features Seventy-two Documents That Collectively Highlight The Broad Diversity Inherent In The History Of American Sexuality. Complementing The Third Edition Of Intimate Matters, By John D'emilio And Estelle B.
